THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

Introduction

In the Philippines, around 19.99 million Filipinos are living below the poverty

line (Philippine Statistic Authority, 2022). This means that almost 1/5 of the population is

incapable of meeting their basic food and non-food needs. Consequently, this study is

conducted to help improve the lives of poor people. It has the potential to improve the life

of anyone involved in business.

The study of entrepreneurship by the students will eventually impact the nation’s

economy. Successful entrepreneurs generate a huge positive impact in society. At the

local level, a proper understanding of entrepreneurship will provide a good living for

individuals as well as the means of providing for their families. Studying

entrepreneurship encourages the next generation of business owners. Due to these

reasons, it is imperative to know the factors that affect the academic performance of the

students. A proper understanding of the underlying factors is necessary in maximizing the

effectiveness of the program.

Theoretical Framework

This study uses the Tinto Model of Retention by Dr. Vincent Tinto. This theory

states that a student’s previous experience has a huge impact on their college experience.

This study suggests that a solid grounding in entrepreneurial studies will positively

impact an individual’s future education in regard to economic and business-related fields.


Conceptual Framework

The figure below represents the input and the process it has to undergo in order to

attain the desired output. The demographic profile of the respondents including age,

gender, grade level, and strand, and the different factors affecting their academic

performance gathered and analyzed through a questionnaire and will be statistically

treated. Based on the survey data which were administered through the use of

questionnaires, the following conceptual framework has been formulated to determine the

influence of different factors on the academic performance of Senior High School

students and their Academic Performance in the entrepreneurial subject.

study that has a valid impact in society. It would help them to become knowledgeable and

become a better analyst of this research topic. The findings of this study will serve as a

reference material and a guide for future researchers who wish to conduct the same or

any study related to improving the entrepreneurial skills of the students.
